A Christmas Freebie

It’s 11:52 here in Nor Cal. Things are finally quiet after a super fun day filled with Santa, food and family. It was a wonderful day and we were very blessed this year by the generosity of wonderful people. We had very little money this year, but it will be a Christmas we will never forget. My heart is full  

Our 365 project is coming to an end. Wow. 2010 is over in one more week. Here is my LO for week 51.

This week I used Doodle Borders by GingerScraps.
Old Fashioned Holiday by, Kathy Winters.
It's Ladies Night by, GingerScraps.
Family Word Art by, Pretty in Green.
365 Template # 51 by, Creations by Julie

I made some homemade gifts this year, as usual. I love giving home made gifts. Here are a few.

I got this idea from Pamela Donnis’ Question jar. I had an empty tin, so I made a Question Tin!  I used the kit Everyday Elegance by Julie Marie Designs.

I found this recipe for Lemon Sugar Hand Scrub on a cute blog and made some up with a cute little label for some of my favorite ladies. I used the kit Fresh Baked for the label, A gingerScraps Collab! Love it, so cute!! This hand scrub is fabulous and super easy to make.

And of course ornaments! My friend Erin wanted to make some for her family too, the one I made her last year with her kids on it is her very favorite Ornament and she knew her family would love to have some too. She made 6 ornaments that day and I made 5. We used a variety of digi kits all from the GingerScraps store and the Drop Ornament Template by, Kelleigh Ratzlaff. The fabulous hybrid template designer! I made Gingers in purple and white to match her purple and white tree

It is one of my very favorite things to make gifts to give away.

Now of course I have one more free template for you week 52! the last week of the year. A little Christmas gift from me to you. This is the very last template for 2010. Week 52! It does have 8 places for photos instead of 7, gotta fit that last day in! I hope these templates have inspired you and helped you along the way with your 365 album. I know it is an album you and your children will treasure for years to come. My children are all ready enjoying the pages we have printed so far. Here is your last template freebie for scrap your life 2010!

You can DL it HERE. If you missed any of these templates this year you can find them in my store at GingerScraps. Weeks 1-52 are all in the store ready for you if you need them. The final set was just released on Friday.

I hope you had a wonderful holiday.  Here’s to family! Merry Christmas from my family to yours.

Scrap Happy!

Let’s Get Organized and a Freebie!

Wait, before we get organized, lol! Let me share my one little cute new goodie up in the store today!

These are Christmas Photo Masks and they are super fun and easy to use!

Make that special Christmas photo sand out above the rest. Frame it with a Christmas Photo mask. These are perfect for those Jolly and Merry photos you take at this festive time of the year! One sale for only $1.50 thru the weekend!

OK! Let’s Plan People!

2010 is almost over. It’s time to start fresh and new! My 2010 planner only has a few pages left. I was thinking the other day, I guess it’s time to go out and buy a planner for 2011. Then I thought, hey I’ll just make my own. So, off to Photoshop I went. I got it all figured out just how I wanted it and thought, hey this is pretty cool! So, of course I must share it with all of my fans

So, here it is Julie’s Planner Pages Templates!

It is so great to be able to personalize your planner with any digi goodness you like! My daughter saw what I was doing and she said, Mommy, I need one of those, make me one.  So, she looked thru my digi stash and picked the kit What’s Bugging you by, Marshmella Designs. It turned out super cute and fit in the 5.50x8.50 little binder that we got at Staples perfectly.

Now, of course I needed to make one for me too, and when I saw the kit Mother, Wife by, Mel Hains who is the guest designer at GingerScraps for December. I thought how perfect that kit would be! I added in a few elements from Happy Snaps by, Mel Hains also. And a few little bits of the kit Fresh Baked the fabulous new GingerScraps Collab!

So, I’m so excited about my Planner now! I am going to print it and put it in my cute little binder ASAP!

Now today is Saturday and this weeks Fresh Baked items are all in the store. This new GingerScraps collab which is called Fresh Baked is sooo adorable! I made some felt goodies for my part of the kit. Hand made of course.

These are just my tiny little addition to this huge and yummy kit!

Every single thing in this kit is so fun and so super cute! I just love it! As I’m going thru the kit looking at at all of it’s cute-ness. I thought, hey, this kit would be perfect to make a Menu Planning page for my planner! So, that’s what I did!

I love it, it’s going to fit with my other Planner Pages perfectly! I know, I’m getting a little excited over a planer. LOL! But, I’m just having way too much fun! I use my planner everyday. If I don’t write it down, I forget! So, this is just perfect for me!

Now of course, I know all of you that want to buy these Planner Pages would love to have the menu pages too, so I packaged it up into a little add-on and decided to make it a freebie! You can decorate it any way you want. Then print, add too your planner and write in those meals! Or you could put it up on the fridge too!

You can grab this freebie Here  or  Here

I also made some CT/Designer Planner Pages to add to my binder too! I just modified the Week and Weekend and To Do List templates a little bit.

Now I can keep everything together all in one spot. Yea! 2011 is going to be a great year!

The Julie’s Planner Pages are in my store at GingerScraps. They are 25% off right now, so go grab your self a set, and grab the menu template freebie while you are there!

Have a great day/night. I am off to bed now,well couch, my 5YO threw up in my bed, poor baby. Now he is in his bed with my Hubs and I’m heading for the couch. LOL. Had to put everything in the wash. Then I cleaned the whole house, finished this template, and now it’s 12:45. That is past my bed time. LOL For some reason I don’t feel tired, all the cleaning woke me up! I hate it when my babies get sick, it’s so sad. Maybe he will wake up in the morning feeling all better!

Scrap Happy!
